As Andrew mentioned, this is not a DSA driver.

I'll rename this file.

I'll add a blank line here.

I'll drop it.

I got it.

I'll drop the quotes.

Indeed. I'll drop the description.

Yes... I found the following documents have "phy" and "phy-handle" by using
git grep -l -w "phys" `git grep -l phy-handle Documentation/devicetree/bindings/`:
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/cdns,macb.yaml
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/cpsw.txt
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/microchip,lan966x-switch.yaml
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/microchip,sparx5-switch.yaml
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/ti,cpsw-switch.yaml
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/ti,k3-am654-cpsw-nuss.yaml
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/phy/phy-bindings.txt

And I'm interesting that the phy-bindings.txt said the following:
-----
phys : the phandle for the PHY device (used by the PHY subsystem; not to be
       confused with the Ethernet specific 'phy' and 'phy-handle' properties,
       see Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/ethernet.txt for these)

I got it.

Yes, each port has mdio bus.

I'll fix it.
